The South Carolina baseball team announced a 2014 schedule that features 37 home games at Carolina Stadium as well as 19 games against 2013 NCAA Tournament teams.

The Gamecocks open the season on Friday, Feb. 14, hosting a three-game series vs. Bucknell.

South Carolina and Clemson will meet in a unique three-game setting for a fifth consecutive year. The series opens in Columbia on Friday, Feb. 28, with first pitch at 7 p.m. Saturday shifts to the Reedy River Rivalry game at Fluor Field, home of the Greenville Drive, a minor league affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. The series finale concludes on Sunday at Clemson.

Additional in-state contests for the Gamecocks include Charleston Southern, Coastal Carolina, College of Charleston, Furman, Presbyterian, The Citadel, USC Upstate and Wofford.

The Gamecocks have played every program on the 2014 schedule at least once. South Carolina will meet Bucknell for the first time since the 2010 NCAA Regional opener that was a 9-5 South Carolina victory, the first postseason win for the Gamecocks on the way to the 2010 NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. South Carolina will follow that series up with a three-game set against Eastern Kentucky. The Gamecocks defeated the Colonels 11-3 on Mar. 21, 1982, at Sarge Frye Field in the only previous contest. Stetson will come to South Carolina in early March for a pair of midweek games, the first appearance for the Hatters in Columbia since the 2011 NCAA Regional. South Carolina defeated Stetson twice to advance to the NCAA Super Regional en route to a second straight national title. Brown is South Carolina’s final three-game series tune-up before SEC play. South Carolina swept Brown in three games in 2010 at Carolina Stadium. Appalachian State and Davidson round out the non-conference opponents for 2014.
